Progress is visible in the talks on the settlement of the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said.
"Progress can be seen, however difficult. We are discussing the
basic principles, separated from the Madrid principles, and then
the discussion will proceed to the other principles. And afterwards
a fundamental agreement will be worked out on this basis," Sargsyan
told Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt in Yerevan on Monday.
"I think, everyone must understand that the status of Nagorno- Karabakh
is the core issue, which must be settled on the basis of free will
and have an obligatory legal foundation," the Armenian president said.
"When we manage to give a clear-cut definition to this question,
a definition that will not lead to dual interpretations, the talks
will continue more smoothly, I think," Sargsyan said.
